Vision

To create and empower social entrepreneurial organizations (SEOs) by providing them with guidance in leadership, and institutional development.

Goals

To assist directly in the achievement of optimal results by social entrepreneurial organizations that address critical needs of society, through planning, implementation, and evaluation.
To identify social innovations which address critical needs of society, and help create SEOs to sustain and scale up the innovations.
To enhance the thinking abilities of social entrepreneurs and their organizations by building a knowledge and skill base through teaching, training, and research.

To commit to action and result orientation, and obsession with result producing methodologies, which are ethically bound and ethically executed.
To understand our clients’ philosophies and act as their partners, and ‘friend, philosopher and guide’.
To serve, ultimately, the poorest constituencies, and in order to fulfill this, we work pro bono.
To act as a liaison and to leverage resources between the professionals and the elite of the society, who have the resources, networks, and power, and those organizations that are dedicated to the poor, the weak, and the unrepresented.

India is the largest experiment in the democracy ever attempted in human history.
For it to succeed we need great institutions in every sector of society, as they are the prime instruments of social change and socio economic development.
In turn enlightened leaders are needed to create, lead, nurture, and sustain such institutions.
Individuals by themselves however brilliant, dedicated, or resource rich cannot hope to enhance the well being of a society single handed.
However it is individuals with the “three I’s” – Intensity, Integrity, and Intelligence who are sorely needed to create and lead institutions.
ILID is an institution to help build such leaders and institutions.
We hope to accomplish this goal by developing the leadership potential along with world-class systems and processes, which together can achieve long term progress.
